Random (amazing) Offerings

Horseshoe, Nazar Boncugu, and Ladybug = NOTHING WILL DESTROY THIS HOUSE.

Again, another classic. So... what is the point of putting a picture of what's inside if we can clearly see what is inside ?

Bird seed.. now fortified with REAL children !

Covering up the menu with bland, un-inspired, stock images? Check. Vertical Squeezing of text in a tight, annoying space? Check. Text is handwritten? Check. Hand-drawn arrow? Check. Putting arrow under text? Check! (Bonus Points!)

Tweety has a new job

 

Wow, Tweety must really be out of work these days with the recession and everything..

Ah yes, Turkish Telecom, the sheen and production value of any large company..

 

You sell lights, you keep them all lit, you couldn't get one to light up your sign too at night ?

 

...Still can't figure out if I'm supposed to be shocked by the logo or the low prices.

 

Classic.

ay ay ay. Classic..

Galata - Büyük Hendek Cad.

'Karinca' ('Ant' in Turkish) - Shouldn't it have legs ??

Korozo!! Döner!! ★★★★★★★!!

 

Walking Elegance, yet Punk Logo

Selamet Büfe

Another classic case of "We Have Everything" on a red background, with yellow logo. Any novice Graphics designer knows that Red + Yellow make a powerful combination (i.e. McDonalds) but that doesn't mean you're allowed to get lazy with the typeface etc. (Also notice, the kids are pointing their cameras in the wrong direction)

Mert Optik

I don't know which one is worse; the top one with it's 50's styling (which I kind of like..) or the bottom one with the wild-west/cowboy typeface for the stores name (... not to mention the Evil Eye on the 'i'), cut-out corner, and mono black information.... yep... I think the second one, definitely.

Ali Usta Pizza Evi (Oh yeah!)

Ali Usta is back and with a new, re-designed flyer!
